Public bug reported:

Hello!

The Python package helpfully ships /usr/lib/valgrind/python.supp, which
is basically the upstream Valgrind suppressions file with some
suppressions uncommented so they work on standard Python builds.

Unfortunately those suppressions are tailored for 32-bit systems and
therefore do not suppress false positive errors in
PyObject_Free/PyObject_Realloc.

See upstream bug http://bugs.python.org/issue12612 and upstream commit
https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/9264faed068b87888a4605ce36bfc9d158515c42
for the changes you need to do.
